Overview: Fallstudien zur Wahlkampfkommunikation 1912-2005Deutschland ist eine "verspätete" Demokratie, freie Wahlen und Wahlkämpfe prägen die Politik hierzulande erst seit einer vergleichsweise kurzen Zeit. Entsprechend jung ist auch das Forschungsfeld der Wahlkampfkommunikation. Während mittlerweile eine Fülle von Studien über die Wahlkämpfe seit den 1990er Jahren vorliegen, in denen das Kommunikationsmanagement umfassend dargestellt wurde, besteht für frühere Wahlkämpfe noch Nachholbedarf. In diesem Band wird eine episodenhafte Geschichtsschreibung der deutschen Wahlkampfkommunikation unter

Overview: Information und Wissen sind zentrale Begriffe, denen sowohl in der Informatik als auch in der Betriebswirtschaftslehre besondere Bedeutung zukommt. ..Ausgehend von der mathematisch geprägten Informationstheorie untersucht und bewertet Friedhelm Kulmann für die Betriebswirtschaftslehre spezielle Methoden der Wissensverarbeitung und setzt probabilistische Konzepte zur Vorbereitung unternehmerischer Entscheidungen ein. Dabei ermöglicht sein interdisziplinäres Vorgehen eine neue Sicht ökonomischer Modelle. Am Beispiel einer Anfragenbewertung aus dem Bereich Industriegütermarketing, bei d

Overview: Offers current research from cosmology and particle physics explained in an understandable way.The history of the universe has fascinated mankind for centuries. Using the interplay of cosmology, general relativity, particle physics and quantum theory, it is today possible to reconstruct it physically. Only the beginning, the big bang, has so far eluded the established laws of physics. The more one approaches it, the more speculative the story becomes. With this book, the reader is invited on a journey to the Big Bang learning on the way about various physical facts, observations and

Overview: Ungewöhnliche Verknüpfung von Computer Science (Softwareengineering) und Philosophie.Das Buch zeigt, wie sich das Weltbild des Menschen durch immer ausgefeiltere Software verändert.Gibt ein umfassendeIn Software gegossene Algorithmen, die Schachweltmeister besiegen oder bei Fragespielen erfolgreich gegen Menschen bestehen, zeigen die radikalen Änderungen in einer durch Software gtriebenen Welt, für deren Verständnis Brücken zwischen Informatikern sowie Technikern und Philosophen notwendig sind. In diesem Sinne argumentiert der Autor für eine Technikpilosophie, in der Software eine be

Overview: The European Workshop on White Dwarfs was initiated by Prof. V. Weidemann, with the first meeting held in Kiel (FRG) in 1974. Since then a similar workshop has been held almost every two years: Frascati (1976), Tel Aviv (1978), Paris (1981), Kiel (1984), Frascati (1986) and Toulouse (1990). Two major IAU colloquia have also been devoted to the study of white dwarfs (No. 53, Rochester NY, 1979; No. 114, Hanover, NH, 1988). Our most recent meeting, the 8th Workshop, marks a number of important advances in both observational and theoretical studies of white dwarfs. This coincides with a

Overview: Focuses very precisely on the biomedical research article. Biomedical language is quite different in many respects from general English and other scientific dialects, and so biomedical language deservAll of us in biomedicine understand the urgency of getting experimental results into print as quickly as possible. Yet this critical step in the cascade from research conception to publication receives almost no attention in our formal training. It is as if we have been put to sea without a compass. Our collective failure to achieve widespread literacy in our own language – Biomedical La

Overview: 47 brauchen nur den Nenner n so groß zu wählen, daß das Intervall [0, IJn] kleiner wird als das fragliche Intervall [A, B], dann muß mindestens einer der Brüche m/n innerhalb des Intervalls liegen. Also kann es kein noch so kleines Intervall auf der Achse geben, das von rationalen Punkten frei wäre. Es folgt weiterhin, daß es in jedem Intervall unendlich viele rationale Punkte geben muß; denn wenn es nur eine endliche Anzahl gäbe, so könnte das Intervall zwischen zwei beliebigen benachbarten Punkten keine rationalen Punkte enthalten, was, wie wir eben sahen, unmöglich ist. § 2. Inkom

Overview: The first book of its kind to be derived from the Wolfenden papers..Presents a truly comprehensive picture of midtwentieth century British homosexuality..Includes source material from the Wolfenden re.The Wolfenden Report of 1957 has long been recognized as a landmark in moves towards gay law reform. What is less well known is that the testimonials and written statements of the witnesses before the Wolfenden Committee provide by far the most complete and extensive array of perspectives we have on how homosexuality was understood in mid-twentieth century Britain. Those giving evidence

Overview: Focuses on major applications of recently developed wavelet tools in solving differential equations in engineering.Explains how to solve nonlinear differential equations by using wavelet methods like The book focuses on how to implement discrete wavelet transform methods in order to solve problems of reaction–diffusion equations and fractional-order differential equations that arise when modelling real physical phenomena. It explores the analytical and numerical approximate solutions obtained by wavelet methods for both classical and fractional-order differential equations; provides

Overview: Provides a much needed update to the bestselling volume Why Peacekeeping Fails.Goes beyond the focus of the original edition to take a much more comprehensive look at peacekeeping.Explains the dramati.In this thoroughly revised edition of his bestselling 1999 volume .Why Peacekeeping Fails., Dennis Jett explains why peacekeepers today are dying in record numbers while engaged in operations that either are bound to fail or make little contribution to peace. The original book compared a wide range of peacekeeping experiences, including the unsuccessful attempt at peacekeeping in Angola

Overview: This volume is the last in the series comprising "Water-A Comprehensive Treatise. " It was originally planned to combine aqueous solutions of macro­ molecules and disperse systems in one volume, but largely because of the extensive coverage required by recent developments in aqueous solutions of proteins and synthetic polymers I decided to separate topics dealing with water in disperse systems. The systems treated in the present volume are of a complex nature so that the theoretical frameworks established earlier in Volume 1 and utilized in Volumes 2 and 3 cannot at the present time
